Unfortunately, trying to get your desktop DAV client to respect the "302 Redirect" necessary for authentication isn't going to work. CAS is ideal at the web tier, but not at the thick tier.
My general recommendation is to configure your CAS server and your thick-client authentication to use the same backend. In UConn's case, we use MIT Kerberos as our core authentication system. The CAS server uses JAAS to authenticate against Kerberos. mod_auth_cas is used to protect Apache resources at the web tier, mod_auth_kerb is used to protect Apache resources at the thick-tier, such as DAV, batch transfers (e.g., using cURL), and REST or other RPC/HTTP. This model should apply across a variety of backends (LDAP, Active Directory, etc) using the matching Apache modules. -Matt On Thu, 2010-07-01 at 22:11 -0400, Balendran Thavarajah wrote: > Hi All, > > > > We are using mod_auth_cas to provide SSO via apache.
